coming soon: Lenovo S880 - 5 inch dual-sim Android 4.0 ICS


meet Lenovo S880, with specs similar to their flagship P700 only bigger (5 inches) and with smaller battery capacity (2250 mAH). For 14,999 will this be worth the wait? i'm saving for the the P700 then i saw this and idunno what to do!!! it's white! it's bigger! almost like my dream Samsung Galaxy S2 (but with dual sim features!) and well, i could pass with the 250 mAH difference... i want this phone... but it's almost at pricey as the HTC Desire V. haha

lol idk. anyway, expected time of arrival in the Phils is around September so yeah, let's wait and see! >:D

back to back awesome movies!

this is it, yearbook and work to juggle at the same time... somebody help meeee stay interested (and awake too)! haha i miss blogging! i really do... there are so many things i wanted to blog about but i hardly have the time to do so! so many pictures in my phone waiting to be featured BUUUT i'm too lazy to upload or i'm too unimpressed with the quality of the picture HAHAHA crappy phone camera lol. haaay

haha yesterday's meeting with the yearbook committee was crazy (as usual)! i can't wait to layout. i'd rather be stressed about the yearbook than about work. this is the stress i enjoy. the right hemisphere of my brain likes this kind of pressure. so what we did was set deadlines, delegates tasks, eat chicken and spaghetti, learned photoshop and the best part... browsed the pictures together... via projector. it was fun (you know what i mean!) seeing everyone's photos and talking about shiz and this and that. crazy day!

after the meeting jeckie came and we watched two movies together seeing that the projector and stuff is ready... we watched coach carter and 3 idiots! back to back awesome movies! i learned so much from those two movies that i'll probably tend to forget anyway, so i'll mention them here. 

from those movies i learned that (cos they somehow touch the same theme...)

- educational institutions are designed to fail us in real life (and this goes to the rest of society). 

that is why it's important to constantly challenge the system and in the process impose inconvenient changes, all for the mission of honing individuals whose life doesn't end at senior year. 

when coach talked about this, i remembered how easy it was for a lot of professors at school to adjust their standards so that majority of the class will pass the subject. i think this in unfair no matter how much it worked for me in the past. in the end i didn't get pride in getting a streak of high grades cos i know somehow i didn't deserve it, that our grades were adjusted. it's hard to take pride in something you can't prove in real life. we may have passed the subject, but we could just be on our way to real failure. 

what use is an institution who tolerates mediocrity, who doesn't care what happens to their students after graduation, who claims to want us to excel but doesn't believe we can? who serves degrees but not education to its students? if the learning is truly up to us, then we can learn any way we want. 

joke. hahahahaha

this is the point were i partly lose track of what i'm saying. haha basta yon. >:)

another thing though...

i kept thinking about life as a multimedia artist, and i can't help feeling regretful that i'm nowhere near being one. that i'm confined to just my ballpens, scratch papers and a wacom intuos 4 (IN MY DREAMS LOL). i thought that it doesn't matter what you study, if you study hard, you're gonna understand it eventually and appreciate it. then i realized there has to be a limit to the things we pursue, sure we can learn everything but lest we learn something we love, only our brains get fed while our heart withers. emo thoughs brought to you by yet another huhu-i'm-not-cut-out-for-this-job drama.

sure you can do art on the sides (walk. joke haha) but thinking about doing it for a living excites me. this is probably why i get easily envious of my friends who have higher paying jobs. it's like whenever i learn of a better job opportunity, i shift my mind to it and think of ways to resign and apply there. only the salary matters. i can easily trade off this spot for a better offer... simply because this is not where i envision myself to be. i keep telling myself that it takes time, i'll get used to it. but it's just a state of MIND. i also need to get my heart in shape. i thought maybe if i was doing a job i truly loved... something that involves art (the art i love)... i'll be at peace. it wouldn't matter if i'm not the best (cos duh i know i'm not), as long as it's something i love doing, i'll be happy. i'll stay.

yeah right! yeah right! wanna bet? i'll be a programmer for life. that's how much i suck. >:|

black as the pit from pole to pole

whatever. random line from some poem i read some time ago.

lol i have a very big problem staying awake at the office during the morning. but i have an even bigger problem keeping my consciousness during meetings. someone tell me what to do! i'm wasting hours on my desk drooling off and not being productive. >XS hayy.

 //people problems [semi-resolved]

 from now on, whenever i get a bad first impression about someone, i'll keep the person in my "People-to-get-to-know-more list". It's to help me decrease the harnessing of evil thoughts about someone and also to give the person the benefit of the doubt. recently, i met someone who at first contact insulted me indirectly. since then, i kinda vowed never to talk to her or even try to befriend her. it's pretty simple really, i have a "don't like? don't mind" mindset against people i hate. the less i interact with them, the less my mind is filled with evil thoughts. then just recently ulit, i kind of grew closer (in terms of proximity) to the person because of a project and as much i hate the idea of it, i had to live professionally LOL. eventually, the irrate feeling turned to sincere friendship (yuck parang anlalim agad ng pinagsamahan eh no) and i felt sorry (deep inside) for being so quick to judge. kkkk nung isang araw pa to eh nakalimutan ko lang ipost haha

 //i woke up from a bad bad dream this morning

 here it goes... i was headed home from SM with my sister and we rode a lagro jeep. i was carrying a bag with a laptop and i saw a suspicious looking man eyeing my bag. he looked like a thief so i kept throwing dagger like stares at him while clutching tighter to my bag. a young boy was also with him, probably a thief too. then suddenly, they moved to get my bag! whoa no! i rose from my seat and tried to make bugaw them away. ang tapang ko grabe. but deep inside i was frakking scared, but right there i looked like i was ready to fight the goon and a half-man with whatever fighting skills i have (screaming maybe?).

 then the thief went down the jeep and made motion na parang naghahamon and i was like , seriously? i can judo** you! but then, i was really scared so uhm, i dunno what happened next. i think the jeep left without him but he kept chasing me so di ako mapakali. i transferred jeeps along the way and sat near the driver and ducked on the floor to hide, but when i raised my head to check, i saw the thief's face on the jeep next to us and he saw mine too and he had a lagot-kang-bata-ka-sakin look on his face before coming down and chasing me agaaaain! i went off at fcm and hid inside the mall, and when the coast was clear i went home alone.

 when i came back, i texted terai to ask where she was cos i almost forgot i was with her pala on the jeep! when she came back, she was crying as she said, "tinali nya kaya kami!" showing the rope the thief used to tie her hands (and others too). so back there they were taken as hostages pala to get my LAPTOP what the heck. and she remembers one of the passengers saying she'll try to contact me for the laptop so he an release them. then terai also said the police caught him naman. hahaha

 now that i'm telling you, it sounds funny pala. hey and you know what, i can clearly remember the man's face although he's a total stranger to me! he looked like a shorter and bald version of jess lapid.


like that! but younger and a bit thinner, and with less facial hair. grabeee hahaha

so hiiiiiiighhh dunno whyyyyy

hello long weekend! whoa this week was soooooooo exhausting even though i only came to work 3 times!

// tuesday - got a rush buyer for my moto defy mini. a foreign buyer wants to get the item asap and meet at greenbelt which is 2 hours away from where i was! hahaha i knew there was something funny with the way he texts, it sounded off so i had to confirm by calling him and that's when i learned (from his accent) that he's not of this country. hahaha so i rushed to greenbelt and blaaaah but lucky me spotted GMA News TV's Pasabay: Libreng Sakay and soooo i got a free ride from FCM to AYALA! that's 51 pesos yeheyyy! Thank you so much GMA News TV! >:D

kuya with logbook of passengers***
ads on every seat
chever
*** - the logbook. for once i thought if the free ride could be a trap! what if that logbook is actually a petition form to pass RH Bill in disguise?! they're getting quite a number of signatures there. LOOOOOOL k.whatevvv

anyhow, i felt so blessed that day cos i was really broke. i like spent my last money on bonchon chicken and yogurt the previous day hahaha and had to wait til friday for my allowance. and then this happened! i got a rush buyer and a free ride! whoa whoa whoa God is good! >:D

but you know, even though i got the item sold, i'm still following up on motorola phils regarding the issue i raised before. it has to be freakin fixed OR ELSE I'M GONNA BLOG SOMETHING CRUEL ABOUT IT LOOOOL. the power of a blog that no one actually reads. lol

// wednesday - back to work. haha i don't remember anything about this day LOL except that i felt that the time went by so quickly! grabeee like it was 10am on my first look at the clock, and on my 2nd... it's already 5pm! grabeee. you know you're frkn busy when you don't have time to look at the time. i don't even remember what i was doing. i think i was coding... or something (far less insignificant) bwahaha.

// thursday - it's our 11th monthsary grabe! 11 months na kame?! akalain mo yon? hindi siguro lol. super haggard dayyy. it was supposed to be a special day so i wore a dress BWAHAHA and tried to look pwetty! but my face turned to pwet when i reached the MRT, super duper kaduper habaaaaa ng pilaaaaa..... up to the ends of EDSA (joke haha basta gang dulo nung flyover). turns out may nasiraang train so so many people got stuck up in the line (like me!). when the guard informed us, a lot backed out and took buses instead, i was one of them! tapos tapos, while waiting for a bus suddenly the line started mooooving! grabe sobraaang craaap. ayun. pila ulit. blah blah blah blah blah

i was surprised to learn that i was only 25 minutes late, back at the pila it felt like every grueling second amounted to a minute. hahaha blah blah blah when i reached office grabe grabe grabe talaga ung pawis ko sa likod. muka akong athlete HAHAHAHA

then then then sm north after work to eat! heheheh happy 11th to us! yey! yey! yey!

iphone4sgiveaways.org SCAM?

YES. and that's all you need to know (but i'll still expound like i can't help myself haha).

beware! in the end it's just gonna ask you to fill out some stupid enterfactory survey that'll ask for your mobile number then bug you to hell. well i just revealed how far i went right? nope. when the site asked for my mobile number i knew i had to stop fiddling with the pathetic possibility. HAHA i sound stupid. >XD

judging from the website alone i knew it had to be scam, but still tried it anyway because uhm, because, what if maybe baka naman diba? hahahaha iphone 4s is iphone 4s, not that i want one. hahahaha

anyway. yeah, i found a really good advice from yahoo answers. might help you too!

how to know if a website service is a scam?
1) if it's too good to be true, it is.
2) if you had to ask if it's scam, it is.

not again, arianne. not again. *face palm*

back to city hunter!
